Take your pick from this range.  Buy enough to fill a bathtub.



I was thinking maybe black Dulux (okay - Proper Job own brand) and a roller...

There were plenty of blue and grey suits at all of my grandparents' funerals. Sombre, dark clothes are fine, it doesn't have to be black.

I've got one of those grey suits that can do weddings, funerals, interviews etc.

Which is handy because I only ever wear one if someone's getting married or put in the ground.

Just wear your school pants, shoes and shirt. Borrow a black tie from somebody.

I've got one of those all-purpose suits that I use for weddings, interviews, funerals etc, but extra handily it's black.

How about a blue navy skit?  Gay porn actor I know just died.

Can't you just wrap a tablecloth around yourself with a black suit drawn on in felt-tip?

My funeral/wedding/interview getup just serves to highlight the growth in my arse each time its used and my range in movement without it mounting a serious escape attempt lessens.

"Please, take a seat Mr greenman."

"I...I'd rather stand, thanks."

In my defence the trousers are about 15 years old now with a 32 inch waist and a good deal of the extra size is muscle, definitely make sure I'm wearing black underwear with them though.

If you don't look like a Reservoir Dog, you're not dressed correctly.

I wore a dress and lipstick and things of that nature to the last funeral I went to, and I'm a FUCKIN BLOKE, but the dead guy was also a massive bender so it was fine. Probably died of too much COCK up his arse. Anyway sorry about your dead uncle

I wore a £35 Asda black suit to a bestie's wedding a few years ago as I was DJing and didn't want to fuck up any of my nice suits crawling about with cables, lights etc. Magnificently hard-wearing polyester made me perspire so prolifically that in all the photos I look like glazed ham. I'll be wearing it again in March to make it look like I'm on the 'winning' side.

I went to a funeral recently where the dress code was for black suits. I didn't have one but the family were fine with me wearing smart black jeans with a black blazer and tie, but apparently some sort of line was crossed and a faux pas was committed when I spent Dies irae through Lacrimosa wanking on my misericord, so in my experience it's really difficult to say what is and isn't acceptable for a funeral these days so just make sure you've showered and your clothes are clean and everything should be fine.

At my Dad's cousin's funeral, recently, everyone wore something yellow, because it was my cousin's favourite colour.

I'd be sorted with that as I've got this Kid Acne print on a t-shirt.

Edit: wrong thread

I don't see anything wrong with a blue suit myself but if you think they're the wrong threads I respect that.

I wore a navy blue suit to my Dad's funeral, with "FUCK YOU" written in Tippex on the back in big letters.
